Here are a few places you can look.

Eduard Nemeth's homepage:

Click on "Anti-Computer" on the menu to the left and it will take you to some
German texts (might be interesting on this subject, if the translation is
decent, or if you read German). Anyway, he has a PGN file of 20 games he has
played against computers where he used the trojan horse attack.

Here is a direct link to the PGN:

Also, search the CCC archives for "mercilous" or "mercilous attack". There was a
guy who used to play on ICC under the handle "mercilous" who more or less had
his way with just about all of the computers on ICC. I don't remember for sure,
but I think this is what prompted Dr. Hyatt to implement the anti-trojan stuff
in the first place. You could also try searching the CCC archive for "trojan
horse" or "trojan attack" or various things like that and you would probably be
able to harvest quite a few games and positions.
